Issue Description

Some guys think power is a gun to the head, a knife to the back. They think it's muscle that makes you tough. Those guys, they're not even criminals. They're hoods, 'cause there's always someone with more muscle, someone who won't fold like a bad hand. Now real power, that comes outta lying and lying big and getting the whole damn world to play along with you. That kind of power can be bigger than truth and a hell of a lot stronger than one old cop and one little girl. That kind of power, that can end lives.

Volume Description

Frank Miller changes the game in the fourth volume of his signature crime series, introducing the only truly heroic figure in Sin City's world of vice, Detective Hartigan. A highlight of the series, and the inspiration for one of the segments of the blockbuster Sin City film, That Yellow Bastard returns in a newly redesigned edition, with a brand-new cover by Miller - some of his first comics art in years! The worst thing to be in Basin City is an honest cop, but it's Hartigan's last day on the job, and he plans to go out with a bang. Little Nancy Callahan, age eleven, has been kidnapped by a psycho who likes to hear children scream, and Hartigan's going to find her no matter what it takes. Hell of a way to start retirement . . . With a new look generating more excitement than ever before, this third edition is the perfect way to attract a whole new generation of readers to Frank Miller's masterpiece!

John Hartigan is an old cop, one of the last uncorrupt in Basin City. This is his last mission before sweet retirement.

A rapist is on the loose, and it's up to Hartigan to save his latest victim, 11-year old Nancy Callahan.

This volume is collected in Sin City #4.
